Apple Magic Mouse drivers arrive for Windows

So you spent $70 on the Apple Magic Mouse and then you realized it would only work with your Mac. Never fear! Apple last month posted Bluetooth Update 1.0 for Windows, which improves the performance of the Apple Bluetooth devices when running Windows XP and Windows Vista on a Mac computer using Boot Camp. Inside are the goods you need: Magic Mouse drivers for Windows even if you aren't using Boot Camp.

The good guys at Uneasy Silence (via Gizmodo) did the dirty work and extracted the 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Apple said in October 2009 that it will be supporting Windows 7 on Boot Camp before the end of the year, and while that update hasn't trickled through, these drivers reportedly work on Windows 7.
